[CWE Flow-Based Market Coupling] RTE : Update of Initial MinRAM Factor for 2021-Q3

Published:

Dear Market Parties,

RTE’s approach for applying the 70% minimum capacity requirement is based on a static value of minRAM Factor in order to provide more visibility and stability to external stakeholders. The minRAM Factor applied to the French CNECs from the beginning of the third quarter of 2021 (start from Business Day : 01.07.2021) is enclosed in the Excel file.

The values have been determined, based on the monitoring of the available margin for cross-zonal exchanges (MACZT) in line with the ACER recommendation. The average MNCC monitored in the third quarter 2020 has been deduced from the 70% requirement for each CNEC in order to obtain the minRAM Factor. In addition the minRAM Factor has been capped to 70%.  Should newly CNECs are introduced in the third quarter 2021 (e.g. never been monitored during the third quarter of 2020), the minRAM Factor value on those CNECs will be set to 70%.

We trust to have informed you sufficiently.

Best regards,

RTE
